The day before the day of canonization, various gifts congratulating Xie Ning had been delivered to Yong'an Palace. Eight? One?? Middle? Wenwang?? ? ???． ８?１?ｚ ?．? Although there were three people who were promoted to the throne together this time, since Xie Ning had taken up a noble word, there was nothing left in the limelight of the other two. Some people give gifts, but they only give Yong'an Palace. Some are in triplicate, respectively sent to Yong'an Palace, Concubine Shi Shen and Concubine Han Jin, of course, the weight of this triplicate is also different, the concubine must be the largest and best part, as for the other two, it is probably not as good as this one. Some people have to be more detailed, and Concubine Han Jin has Princess Yuju, so naturally she has to be more attentive. Concubine Shi Shen? Before she didn't become a concubine, many people didn't even remember that there was such a number one person in the palace, who wanted to be spoiled and had no children, and she was also in vain.

This gift is mandatory.

Xie Ning looked at the gift list with a wry smile: "I really owe a lot of favors now." ”

There are a few boxes in the gift list alone, and as for the gifts, it goes without saying. All the rooms that were still vacant in Yong'an Palace were vacated for these gifts. According to Bai Hongqi, this is already very simple, mainly because many people want to marry the concubine, but their identity is not enough, there is no way, and they can't send gifts to the palace.

Thankfully, that's the case.

Fang Shanggong was very aware of Xie Ning's psychological burden, and it was not good to be too loyal. Xie Ning felt that it was useless, besides, there must be something to ask for in courtesy, these people have never even met her, and Xie Ning always feels ashamed to give such a generous gift.

"The master doesn't have to think like this, it's a convention, it's not that they want to ask the master to do anything. The position set by the emperor for the master, the master is the most noble concubine in this palace, and in the future, those clan ladies and noble women will also have some dealings with the master. In the past, these people either had a relationship with Concubine Shu, or had dealings with Princess Mingshou, but now these two people are gone one after another, they are afraid that these things will have an impact on their own family, and they are afraid that the master will ignore them for these reasons in the future, and the master is not steady, and they are even less steady. ”

Fang Shanggong paused for a moment, and then said, "What's more, who doesn't know the master's current favor?" Everyone else gave gifts, and no one was embarrassed to be pulled down, otherwise wouldn't it be a conflict with the emperor's order? ”

As soon as he pulled out this big flag, Xie Ning didn't say anything. It's just that there are so many things in one Jinfeng, which really makes her heart tremble. But then she made a separate calculation. She is not only in and out, being a concubine is different from before, she has also received gifts from others before, and has also given others some gifts, such as birthdays and the like, but after all, there are very few contacts. But as a concubine, not only will she have the right to interrogate, mediate and even dispose of all matters in the palace in the future, but she will even have to take care of many things outside the palace. For example, in the past, she and the emperor also joked about the Yuejun Palace, but at that time, she only listened to it as an anecdote, and it will be different in the future. If there is such a wedding or funeral in the clan, the emperor will have a reward, and the harem will also have it. It's not that she has to pay out of her own pocket, but after all, she has to ask. Regular rewards for festivals, additional rewards, and her life will never be able to live a leisurely and boring life in the future.

"Yong'an Palace will only become more and more lively day by day in the future, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the court is like a city. In the past, Yanning Palace had many scenery, and Yong'an Palace will only be better in the future. ”

Xie Ning was stunned for a long time, and said: "Then we don't have enough manpower - there were four or five in Yanning Palace and Guangshang Palace before." ”

And Xie Ning is full of only three here, of which Fang Shanggong is needless to say, and the other two are only responsible for taking care of the children, one was brought by the eldest prince, and the other was arranged for Princess Yuyao later. In addition to the children's affairs, they can't interfere in other things in Yong'an Palace.

If it is really like what Fang Shanggong said, Xie Ning will have so many things to be busy in the future, she alone will definitely not be able to do it, just what Fang Shanggong said to give the palace and the palace a reward for the New Year's holidays is a big deal, and the reward for weddings and funerals is more cumbersome and frequent, which has to be managed by one person, and it has to be a shrewd and careful person to do it. And there are many inconveniences in dealing with Shanggong outside the palace, like going out of the palace to spread the word and do those things can only be done by eunuchs, Hu Rong is a lot stronger than a year ago, but I am afraid that he will not be able to withstand such a big mess.

But Fang Shanggong didn't worry about this matter at all: "Don't worry about the master, there will be no shortage of people if there is anything lacking in the palace, you don't think there is anyone to make it now, but you don't know how many people want to go through the path of slaves and maids and want to serve the master." Even Bai Hongqi didn't accept the requests of others, even if we only have a pit here, I'm afraid that there are dozens of hundreds of radishes who want to fill this gap. ”

Xie Ning was amused by the radish, and he didn't look at the gift list, since there will be a steady stream of congratulatory gifts moving into Yong'an Palace three days before and after the canonization, so it is not interesting to look at the list now.

She asked lightly: "Is that matter investigated?" ”

Fang Shanggong also replied in a low voice: "Please rest assured, the slave and maid will definitely give the master an explanation." ”

Xie Ning nodded, and seeing that she had no other instructions, Fang Shanggong retreated, and walked face to face with Qingmei at the door.

Qingmei didn't know anything about the destruction of Jifu, and she was so busy with her feet hitting the back of her head these days that she could only sleep for less than three hours, and she didn't have time to pay attention to the things next to her.

"Fang Shang Palace." Qingmei greeted and handed her a stack of gift slips in her hand: "This was just delivered." Because we can't put it down here, do you think the beaters and the people of the inner palace eunuch said to borrow the place in the west satin warehouse to store things first? ”

Fang Shanggong took the order, and Qingmei went into the house to report to Xie Ning: "Master, Zhou Yuchen is here, I want to ask to see my master, does my master have the time to see him at this time?" ”

"Zhou Yuchen?"

If it weren't for the conversation with Fang Shanggong just now, Xie Ning would probably be confused about Zhou Yuchen's intentions, but now she guessed seventy or eighty percent in her heart.

Yong'an Palace is hot now, but there is a shortage of people. Qinghe has been pressed by many things in the past two days, and he is in a hurry to start a fire. Hu Rong's eyes were even redder, his voice was hoarse, and he had to ask the people from the Department of Medicine for some Qingxin Pill Throat Moisturizer Pill to eat, which was not a big deal.

"Invite him in."

Speaking of which, I haven't seen Zhou Yuchen for a while, and the last time I met was around the full moon of the second prince. When I lived in the Lingering Fragrance Pavilion, I had a lot of dealings with Zhou Yuchen, and after arriving at Yong'an Palace, Bai Hongqi was the most diligent person who came and went, but Zhou Yuchen saw even less.

In the past, when Xie Ning was still a young talent, Zhou Yuchen, the deputy chief eunuch of the back garden, was already a great figure, and even if he couldn't stammer, he couldn't be offended. At that time, when Zhou Yuchen came to the Lingering Fragrance Pavilion, Xie Ning had to be polite and even respectful.

But time has passed, and Zhou Yuchen now wants to see the concubine, depending on whether she has the time and mood.

Xie Ning politely invited Zhou Yuchen in. Coming in this way, Zhou Yuchen's eyes were not idle.

Yong'an Palace is not what it used to be, busy but not chaotic, although the people who come and go are in a hurry, but two by two, each performing its own duties, acting and replying have rules, although it can be seen that it is tired, but the spirit is vigorous and full of energy.

Separated by a door, the places outside the Yong'an Palace are lifeless, even Concubine Shi Shen and Concubine Han Jin have been sealed, and they are also cold there, not to mention others. I heard that Chen Jieyu is sick these days, and she is really sick instead of pretending to be sick, but because of such a major event as the Mid-Autumn Festival and canonization, she can't touch the mold and ask the doctor, so she boiled medicine for the time being. Gao Jieyu has been closed since the will of Jin Feng spread, most likely because the concubine did not have her this time, and she felt that she had lost face and refused to see anyone. As for the others, not to mention, Cao Shunrong has always been high, Li Zhaorong has always been docile, and other unpopular beauties such as Baolin are also silent.

Houyuan is actually not quiet, Tang Cairen and a few of them also won the Jin seal this time, don't look at the low position, but a few people are like black-eyed chickens, and it is not the same time that they make each other stumble, and Zhou Yuchen is too lazy to pay attention to their little troubles. If you want to say that any of them are really favored, Zhou Yuchen will help or mediate one or two, but he has a heart higher than the sky but does not have that ability, Zhou Yuchen sometimes can't help but sigh, this is called a bottle less than half a bottle. These beauties who were selected into the palace are really not as good as one another. Xie Ning and their subordinates have produced characters like Liang Meiren and Li Zhaorong, and Xie Ning has come from behind, and now they are the only ones. Tang Cairen's talent and appearance are not bad, but their mind and vision are more than one layer lower, and they made a fuss when they were still in the Ting Palace, and at that time, Zhou Yuchen felt that they were only afraid that it would be difficult to become a big weapon.

What's more, they were born at the wrong time, and when they entered the palace, they were just in time for Xie Ning to be favored, pregnant, and give birth to children. In addition, there are so many things that have happened this year, how can the emperor have the kind of mind to care about them.

Entering the palace gate, Zhou Yuchen didn't say a word and said hello, and said: "Congratulations to the concubine." ”

Xie Ning smiled and said, "Grandpa Zhou doesn't have to be polite. Qinghe, please sit down with Father-in-law Zhou, and serve tea quickly. ”

Her tone didn't sound much different from when she was in the Lingering Fragrance Pavilion, but the status and mood of the two sides were very different from the beginning.

"In the past few days, Niangniang must be entangled in everything, our family has come to disturb at this time, and please don't be surprised."

"Grandpa Zhou is too polite."

Zhou Yuchen knew Xie Ning's character, and he also knew that he didn't have much time, so he didn't go around in circles and say flattering words. He came to Yong'an Palace to ask for something, not to gossip, and of course it was impossible to really sit down and taste the good tea entertained by the concubine.

Zhou Yuchen's words were very decent, but the meaning was very clear, he wanted to come to Yong'an Palace to serve.

Qinghe listened on the sidelines, and couldn't help but have a new impression of Zhou Yuchen.

There are more people who want to enter Yong'an Palace, but Father-in-law Zhou came to the door and recommended himself to his master, and he was the first one.
